Blue Bayou

I feel so bad I’ve got a worried mind

I’m so lonesome all of the time

Since I left my baby behind on Blue Bayou

Saving nickles saving dimes

Work until the sun don’t shine

Looking forward to happier times on Blue Bayoo

I’m going back some day

Come what may to Blue Bayou

Where the folks are fun

and the world is mine on Blue Bayou

Where those fishing boats with their sails afloat

If I could only see

that familiar sunrise through sleepy eyes

how happy I’d be

Gonna see my baby again

Gonna be with some of my friends

Maybe I feel better again on Blue Bayou

Saving nickles saving dimes

Work until the sun don’t shine

Looking forward to happier times on Blue Bayoo

I’m going back some day

Come what may to Blue Bayou

Where the folks are fun

and the world is mine on Blue Bayou

Where those fishing boats with their sails afloat

If I could only see

that familiar sunrise through sleepy eyes

how happy I’d be

Oh that baby of mine by my side

The silver moon and the evening tide

Some sweet day gonna take away

This hurting inside

Well I’ll never be blue my dreams come true

On Blue Bayou
